Activities in the SC stands will follow a new procedure at tomorrow's Homecoming game, according to Kn.ght President Bert Coffey.
If enough rooters arrive at the student gates of the Coliseum, the turnstiles will be opened at noon instead of the usual 12:30.
All students, whether they sit in the card section or not, will be ex-! pectcd to wear white shirts or 1 blouses. Coffey also urges rooters to bring their megaphones and pompons.
Halftime activities will begin when the 10 winning floats, select-! ed at last night's Homecoming parade, circle the gridiron.
The card section's first stunts will portray the American flag on a green background, and a red tepee on a white background with a “Welcome Stanford” greeting to the visitors. Two caricatures will be flashed next, one of the Stanford Indian and the other of Tommy Trojan.
Action will begin when the Trojan draws his sword and uses it repeatedly on the Brave's head. The Indian will be slowly driven into the ground until only his flattened head is visible. The stunt will close with Tommy Trojan flexing his arms Charles Atlas style.
President Fagg Given Plans For Infirmary
The report of a six-man committee studying plans to build an infirmary on campus was turned in at President Fagg’s office yester-
J
day.
President Fagg and administrative officers will begin a study of the committee's proposals next week, but no indication has been given as to how soon they will reach a decision and submit it to the Board of Trustees.
STUDENT CAMPAIGN
Floor plans of the proposed infirmary building were included in the committee's report, together with suggested procedures for operating the clinic and methods of financing it.
The infirmary committee was beaded by Dr. James N. DeLamater, associate dean of the School of Medicine. Other members were Dean Tracey E. Strevey of eLtters, Arts and Sciences, Hugh Willett, director of Admissions, and Health Service Director Paul O. Greeley.
The program under consideration is in part an outgrowth of a campaign conducted the last school year by the Daily Trojan, the Greater University committee, and the Student Senate.
FEE FAVORED
Expansion of the Student Health Service and the opening of an infirmary will require the initiation of a Student Health fee. The amoun thas not yet been determined.
The Student Senate voted last ial! for a $10-a-semester health fee. Ana in a poll conducted by the Daily Trojan, 69 per cent of the students approved such a fee.

Pat, the homecoming queen entry who was seriously burned, and Gary were high school sweethearts at Inglewood. Since Gary has become one of Stanford’s sophomore “Wow Boys” Pat has been his most ardent booster.
As far as tomofrow’s contest is concerned, Pat says that she will be rooting for the Cardinal and Gold, but the young Injun wearing No. 1,7 won’t be forgotten either.
The bandages were removed from Pat’s face last night, and she will be able to give Kerkorian one of the charming siriles that won her SC’s Smile Queen title this year. The bums will not l?ave any scars. In fact, the doctor assures Pat her skin will be just like a baby’s. But Pat doesn’t advise anyone to try ultra-violet rays for beauty.
Homecoming-happy row inhabitants let off steam early this morning by pulling down house decorations at 1 a.m. and massing them together for a huge bonfire at 28th and Severance.
Smaller fires were burning up and down the Row as vandals attempted'to set fire to decorations still up on lawns of some houses. Several minor fights broke out between celebraters and members who wished to preserve their decorations.

Project Reports
Subcommittee chairmen of the Greater University committee gave preliminary reports on projects ranging from faculty-student reia-tion$ to the SC parking problem at a meeting of the various chairmen yesterday afternoon.
Ruben Zacarias, chairman of the Faculty-Student Relations commit-te', presented tentative plans under consideration by his committee. These include departmental student-faculty lunches, a faculty-student athletic program, a series of biographical sketches cf faculty members in the Daily Trojan, a Facul-ty-Student Relations committee made up of members from both groups, and a Faculty-Student Relations day.
The highlight of Faculty-Student Relations day will be a debate between faculty and student representatives on the topic “Resolved that the students have more to offer the faculty than the faculty has to offer the students.”
Zacarias, like other subcommittee chairmen, refused to go into details on any of the plans until complete agreement had been reached between the committees and faculty and administration personnel concern'd with the projects.

Under the pressure of my questioning. Warfield said, “Look, tell them rhat this dance is a climax of a glorious week. It is the finale to a football game.” Tell them to come out and support it. It will be terrific.'*

“You can't do that,” I said, “that is known as editorializing in the newspaper world. In a news story you can’t ask people to come out and s pport the school. Haven t you got something new?”
Warfield thought and then he spoke again. “Bids are $3.60 cents less than last year.”
“That’i, been told,” I sighed. “‘Alright, Russ Morgan, of the famous ‘Music m the Morgan Manner,’ is going to play.”

This evening the group will attend the “Trolios of ’49.” and tomorrow afternoon they will be presented to the SC rooting section at tiie SC-Stanford game.
The week’s activities will be climaxed tomorrow night when Miss Tongue, with her court, will reign over the annual Homecoming dance at the Casino Gardens.
SC should make future parades an annual afiair in the city.
According to Tommy Shea, head yell leader, the winning floats will be announced tonight at the Trolios of ’49 homecoming show.
Many of the floats will be on display on University avenue for the benefit of students who were unable to attend the parade.
A police motorcycle wedge led the paraders down Broadway and past the reviewing stand upon which was assembled cardinal and gold spotlights and KECA-TV. Then the SC band, led by Tommy Walker, opened up with the SC Fight song.
After the band had settled on the City hall steps, the spotlight’s glare was turned on a 1902 Pierce-Arrow sedan from which Bernard L. Hyink. dean of students; Chief of Police Worton, and Mayor Bew-ron descended.
The evening was nearly spoiled when a jeep emblazoned with the letters UCLA in blue and gold twisted and turned in front of boo-inng SC rooters. This was revealed to be a hoax when a girl in the back seat waved an SC cap.
